Know where the quarter lands. Weeks before it does.
A live sales forecast built from every deal and sharpened by how customers actually retain and expand — one number sales and finance both trust, re-forecast every day.
Sales says one number. Finance carries another. The board hears a third.
Everyone forecasts the same quarter and lands somewhere different — then argues about whose number is real. And whatever you settle on is a guess that's already out of date by the time the meeting ends.
One forecast, built from every open deal.
Closed-won so far, plus what's genuinely going to land — each deal weighted by how its segment actually closes, drawn forward to quarter-end against the target.
Illustrative — the forecast is your real cumulative bookings, drawn to quarter-end. The band is the honest range, not a single false line.
Not a growth-rate guess. Every dollar is a real deal.
This is the forecast, deal by deal: each open opportunity, its win probability, and what it contributes once you weight it. Beacon re-weights every deal as new signals come in — so the number rebuilds itself daily, not at quarter-end.
Illustrative — forecast = win probability × ARR, summed. Each probability is weighted by how that segment actually closes, and re-reads every night as deals move.
Every deal carries its segment's curves — for years, not one quarter.
The day Beacon sees the deal, it already knows how its segment retains, expands and costs to serve — and it re-runs this at any point in the customer's life, not just at close. So the forecast isn't just this quarter's bookings; it's the revenue, margin and cash this one deal throws off over its whole life. Company-level is simply every deal, summed.
Includes expansion — the seat growth and upgrades this segment reliably adds. Year 1 is the booking; the rest is what the account becomes.
Front-loaded: onboarding makes Year 1 the heaviest. It settles once they're live, then drifts up gently with usage — the cost curve finance never sees at deal time.
Revenue minus cost-to-serve and collection timing. Thin in Year 1 while onboarding is paid down, then compounding — and it flows straight into the company cash & runway plan.
Climbs as heavy first-year onboarding amortizes — 64% in Year 1 to 82% by Year 5, crossing the target in Year 2. The line finance actually cares about.
Expansion outruns churn every year — the compounding that makes this deal worth far more than its first-year ARR. This is the curve that carries the whole revenue forecast.
Illustrative — one deal's forecast; the company view is every deal's curves, summed. Each curve is the segment's real behaviour, not a flat average.
The forecast moves the day the deals move. Not at quarter-end.
Every night Beacon re-reads the pipeline and rebuilds the number — and tells you exactly what changed and why. No forecast-call scramble, no month-old spreadsheet.
Illustrative — the same deals from your Sales intelligence board, rolled up into one live number.
Every forecast is sealed — then the engine learns from it.
Lock a forecast and it's sealed into the unified revenue forecast — a snapshot you can replay, deal by deal. When the quarter closes, Beacon grades it against what happened and recalibrates the probability engine, with your sales team in the loop. Variance drops, confidence climbs, every cycle.
Illustrative — a sealed forecast is a reproducible snapshot: same inputs, same result, every replay. Confidence and variance shown are the engine's own track record, quarter over quarter.
Sales and finance stop arguing about the forecast.
Because it's built one way, from the same deals, weighted by the same lifecycle intelligence — there's nothing left to reconcile.
Before — two forecasts, one argument
Sales talks up the commit. Finance quietly discounts it. The real number surfaces at quarter-end, when it's too late to do anything about it.
With Beacon — one forecast, both trust it
Sales sees the deals; finance sees the same roll-up, weighted by real retention and expansion. One number, updated daily, that both teams can sign.
A forecast you'd bet the quarter on.
